Hi Peter,

the `normal´ way to do what you want is to trim keepAliveInterfaces as
shown in LSR
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=312
But { s1 } seems not to result in a Grob. And I found no interface for
it to distinguish from { r1 }.

Is there any?

So Phil's suggestion (or some similiar) seems to be the way.


Sorry,
